Howdy folks, it's been a long time, I havea customer that owns a Le Mat Revolver Clone, he wants me to make a holster Civil War style (see the attachments) , since I don't have such replica and the customer it's very far from my location, I'm wondering if there's anybody willing to share a pattern, I consider also the option to purchase a pattern, if there's any avalaible. Thank you all in advice for attention e replies

Thank you Dwane, here's a few pics of knife and knife sheath, it's a Muela knife

Thanks for the nice words fellas, to @bikermutt07 it's a Tandy Flower Stamp E 318, to @CaptQuirk I always use 8/9 oz veg leather lined with 2/3 oz suede to have more grip around the waist

Howdy folks! It's been a long time since my last post, I've been really busy, but finally I found some time to show you some of the gunbelts rigs that I've made troughout these months. I've made a SASS rig, straight draw + cross draw, a Mexican Loop holster, a Knife Sheath. The black one is an interesting one, it's a combination of buscadero and ranger style gunbelt able to fit the same holster that comes with a round loop strap and a classic buckle strap. The last two pics are Buscadero Gunbelts with a fast draw holster and a Cheyenne Holster. I would like to thank once again, Jim Simmons for his great pattern and his advices, without his help I wouldn't be able to achieve these skills. Anyone knows how is he? It's been a long time since Jim's last post, I hope is doing well. Thanks for watching!

Can you please add me. Thanks

Check this out, I think is what you are looking for! Those patterns are made By Jim Simmons,my menthor on gunleather It's on my to-do-list! As soon I'll have some time to make some gunleather for myself! Those are the instructions

Got myself this beautiful Uberti Cattleman 4 ¾ in .45 Lc and I wanted to show it off with my very fist gunbelt rig, I have added a legtie and an hammer thong as well

Thanks guys! By the end of this week I'm going to buy a second hand Uberti Cattleman 4 ¾ barrel .45LC, what are you going to get Jon P?

Thanks Toney and Jarhead44706, go for it man!

Howdy folks Here's a few gunbelts that I've made for customers in the last few months! I would like to thank one more time Jim Simmons, for his great tutorials and patterns, without his material I wouldn't reached this level of work, by the way, anybody heard anything from him? It's quite a while since he posted something on this forum. Any comment or suggestion is highly appreciated for future improvements. Cheers from Italy

Yes I do have, pictures from others holster makers and screenshot from the movies

Howdy folks As the title topic says I am planning to make for myself an Eastwood rig, I've ordered, from Black river laser, the gunfighting sitching template, so I'm pretty set up on making the belt itself. My main concern is to make the holster, if just needs a welt or a filler along the main seam, also I never made rough out gunleather, any hint? If someone feels to share a pattern, I am also willing to pay for a digital pattern. Any help is highly appreciated ! Cheers from Italy

Nice article Tugadude, I'm planning in the future to make a replica of the rig worn by Clin Eastwood, and I'm starting collecting info!

Hi guys, I've been asked for a wallet rig holster, for a small pistol like the Beretta Jetfire, since I never heard about this tipe of holsters, anyone can give me any hint, tips or advise in making one of those. Here's a video as reference seems to me a 4/5 oz piece. Thanks in advice. Cheers from Italy https://youtu.be/55k6yWH723g

I would like to ask another thing about neatsfoot oil and oil finishises, how to let dry it properly in autumn/winter? now it's not very sunny and hot where I live in Italy...

Check this video out glockanator! You gotta love Richard Black's video, so full of explanations and tips! https://youtu.be/hqYBjrxNyMg

Nice one TimberWolf! Here's the finished Holster and Belt http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=65145#entry423399

Nice one Toney! I like the border stamping!Did you used Extra Virgin Olive Oil?

Howdy folks, Hell on Wheels, one of my favourite TV Series so far, has just began for the 5th and final season, so today I was trying to make, the holster pattern of the main protagonist, Cullen Bohannon, former Confederate Officer, looking for vengeance and ended up as a Railroad man, he used to carry a brass framed 1860 Colt Army in the first two seasons, now he has switched to a 1858 Remington. It's basically a mexican doble loop holster, with a large teardrop as backskirt. The belt it's pretty straight forward,it's a 1 3/4 inch belt and the buckle is an heavy duty roller buckle from Tandy. I've tried to distress the leather on the holster to make it a little bit aged according to the TV show. Well, tell me guys what do you think, suggestions and tips are welcome for future improvements. Cheers from Italy

You're welcome, I've finished the gunbelt yesterday, soon I'll post a few pictures on the Gun Holster Section

Here's a few tips for you johnwayne97, the belt is a 1 3/4 wide,with an heavy duty roller buckle, I've punched 11 holes, (one every inch) from the first hole to the end is roughy 14 inches of overlenght to tuckle in (like Bohannon wears it on the show). Regarding the holster, that I agree in the show looks pretty aged/distressed, you can print, trace on posterboard and then edit the California Slim Jim patterns posted in the gun holster holster section, then add a teardrop. I don't have a scanner device to scan my pattern, otherwise I'll post it. Hope it helps, I think it's a fun and easy project for a beginner. Also check this thred out, it's all about Bohannon's costume! http://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=172601

@ malabar , thanks for the very detailed observations! @ Jim, I forgot to say thet he uses a Browning rifle for hunting and the machete for clearing the path while he's following his dog

I thought so, was just a crazy and dumb idea I have made a California Slim Jim out of them, just wanted to make another one unlined out of those dragoon/walker patterns.

Amazing patterns as always Jim, will those patterns work if I print them out a little bit downsized to fit Colt Navy/Army ?

After a few pattern attempt here's the result! When It's done I'll post it in the Gun Holster section
